Bastien: I agree with you, every time I get emails from other users, they are "jagged" and "unclear"--and; like you typed they are unreadable/unclear (the columns aren't "covered down")---maybe its the font that I use? I'll research the different fonts--I think "Courier" font may keep things clearer. Here is a test: |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 11B | 21W | 31B | 41W | 51B | 61W | 71B | 81W | 91B | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 12W | /u/0802.jpg | 0 | 0 | [[file:j]] | 0 | multi | 0 | * | | | | | | | | | | line | | | | | | | | | | | | text | | | | | | | | | | | | text | | | | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 13B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 14W | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 15B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 16W | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 17B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 18W | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 19B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 18W | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 17B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 16W | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 15B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 14W | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 13B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 12W | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| | * | 11B | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | * | |---+-----+-------------+-----+-----+-------------+-----+-------+-----+-----+---| #+TBLFM: ---yes, "courier" font is what I used to use--it aligns tables better. I'll use "courier" font; and, I suggest others use it--when dealing with/expressing table problems to others--many fonts don't "cover down" columns. Thanks again Bastien.
